Is your child ready to grow into a confident and thriving French reader this summer?

We are excited to share that our 2026 Summer French Reading Programs are now open, and your school has provided you with exclusive early access. Whether your child would benefit from extra support or is ready for enrichment, our certified reading specialists are here to guide them in a focused, engaging, and personalized way.

What your child will gain:

• Online small group or one-on-one lessons tailored to their needs
• Instruction from certified teachers and reading specialists who specialize in French immersion
• Targeted support in phonics, fluency, comprehension, vocabulary, and enrichment
• Engaging lessons designed to build confidence and strong reading habits

Our programs are designed not only to strengthen skills, but to help children feel capable, motivated, and proud of their progress in French.

Early Bird pricing is available until April 30.

Spaces are limited and programs fill quickly each year. We encourage you to reserve your child’s spot as soon as possible. Once we reach capacity, a waitlist will be created.

You can learn more or reserve your spot here:

Congratulations to Alice Maundrell and our Grade 7/8 band students on receiving a Superior rating at the music festival in Port Alberni last week. A Superior rating is the highest score that can be awarded and is rare at band festivals, making this achievement especially impressive.

Well done to all involved!
